Monsters

Monsters can be

Large and intimidating

They can be small and poisonous

Monsters can be

Hairy things, scary things, any things

They can be your

Worst nightmare

Or you can befriend them

Monsters can be

The person you turn into

Because you feel like

Without that special some one

You’ll be unable to survive

So you go out and do crazy shit

And beg for something

You shouldn’t have to beg for

And be someone

You never wanted to be

You look at yourself

Yet you don’t recognize your own face

And you know deep down

This is all ridiculous

Would they do anything crazy for you?

No.

You’re their ride or die

You are only an option to them

You’d hate to see them degraded

Yet when you degrade yourself

They think it’s amusing

And that is the difference

I was a monster, I am the monster

I embrace my monster

And release you into the wild

To be free
